"Pee Wee's Big Adventure" is less a movie than a bizarre phenominon.
Nearly everyone around my age, back when we were kids, was obsessed with this demented movie. We had the dialogue memorized and acted out our favorite scenes. It was, in essence, the "Austen Powers" or "Ace Ventura" of my generation. It's also better than those two movies combined.
I can't possibly imagine what today's kids would think about Pee Wee and his friends. Watching it will most likely only give them more reason to wonder what is currently wrong with today's adults. Heaven knows, we don't need that.
On the other hand, without a second thought, I must say this: Hands down, best chase scene EVER!
